  • injury rate is an important factor of course, but not the only one. players and teams have to make adjustments to how they play on a short week. these adjustments are an intangible, yet may impact the situation greatly. all i’m saying is, don’t just look at the injury rates and say, nah thursday is fine. just the eye test alone on thursday games warrants those games a closer look. the games traditionally lack the overall skill level, we’ve all seen it, some players just don’t look as sharp. perhaps they are guarding against injury or a previous lingering injury more, which then may ironically be more dangerous at times, especially when other players are playing full speed ahead. many factors about the short week need to be considered.
